There's virtually no reason to use DMD and I don't think anyone 
is using it seriously anymore in production. A lot of the 
companies switched to LDC over the last years.
A good example: the Debian/Ubuntu D maintainers didn't even 
bother creating a package for DMD (even though it's fully open 
source for more than two years now) as you want to use GDC or LDC 
to compile libraries or applications anyhow.

The only real reason why DMD is still the "reference compiler" 
and "officially recommended" is that Walter is in charge and DMD 
is his life work.
